Shown at the JARC home dedication are Rabbi Harold Loss, Gracie Gilbert, Joyce Keller, Shirley and Sam Gilbert, Grant Gilbert, Dan Gilbert, David Katzman, Jennifer Gilbert, Nicholas Gilbert and Jim Zack. Members of the community gathered in Farmington Hills on Sept. 24 to dedi- cate the Jewish Association for Residential Care's new Gilbert/Katzman home. Purchase of the home was made pos- sible by a gift from Shirley and Sam Gilbert, Jennifer and Dan Gilbert, Gary Gilbert and Nancy and David Katzman. The families also established an endow- ment fund to ensure on-going operation of the home. Additional funding has been secured from the Oakland County Community Mental Health Authority and JARC's private fund-raising efforts. The Gilbert/Katzman home is JARC'S latest "transition" living space. The four women who live in the home will benefit from the structure of a home setting, yet will enjoy more inde- pendence than is provided in a tradi- tional group home.
